Take a seat at the counter and dig into authentic Pennsylvania Dutch fare, homestyle dishes including apple cinnamon French toast, scrapple, and chicken pot pie. But one bite of their apple dumpling — a whole peeled and cored apple, spiced and wrapped in scratch-made pastry, baked until soft and yielding and served warm in a bowl with a splash of high-quality heavy cream — will quite possibly change your life. It’s a dish that everyone needs to experience at least once.

While it may be more of an indulgence than a well-balanced breakfast, there's always something to be said for a recommendation that comes with "change your life" hyperbole.
